More (and More) ALM Writing.

As you well know, I dedicate a blog post to every new issue of Austin Lifestyle Magazine. The latest issue is no different. With each issue, I’ve been writing more and more stories, and this time I have 5 – yes, 5! – stories. I won’t go into detail about each one, but there is one story that is extremely near and dear to my heart.

If you read the blog regularly, you’d know that I have a very personal attachment to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training. My Austin training group decided to race in the 2013 Ironman in Arizona, which took place yesterday (by the way – CONGRATS TEAM! I’m so proud of y’all!). Throughout their entire journey, I have just been so, so proud of each and every one of them, and though I didn’t participate myself, I have been cheering them on as much as they could. As part of this month’s issue, I was honored to write a special story about the Ironteam, just in time for their big race. They have done such an amazing thing – physically, mentally and monetarily (the team raised $107,000 for cancer research) – and they deserved to be recognized. If you read no other story in this issue, I encourage you to read this one. You’ll find it on page 48.
